California is a no-fault state with regard to divorce. So, in CA adultery etc. is irrelevant to the divorce process. As far as custody is concerned--it is only relevant if that conduct somehow endangered or affected the children. So--if you go to court and he tries to get into this arena--you or your attorney needs to object on relevance grounds..and it will most likely be sustained--excluding that evidence.
Best of luck.
